Looks Last Minute: Cartoon Cosplay Wedding

Seen here donning their best (but still very bad) Jessica Rabbit and Superman costumes, English couple Nyssa Pratten, 19 and Rob Taverner, 32 (CRADLE ROBBER!) tied the proverbial nuptial noose in a comic book/cartoon-themed wedding this week that gives every indication of being planned entirely the night before. Kidding guys, you look great. Well, Nyssa anyways.

Bride Nyssa walked down the aisle to the 'Star Wars' theme, and after confirming their nuptials the happy couple left to the famous 'Looney Tunes' exit music.


Mr Taverner said that he and his wife had a shared love of cartoons and comics.

He said: 'I'm what everyone calls a 'geek', into all the nerdy stuff like computers, comics, sci-fi and graphic novels.

'Nyssa's into more of the girlie stuff like Buffy the Vampire Slayer, but she's learning - she gets really proud of herself when we're all chatting and she gets a reference.'

The blushing bride, who is 15 weeks pregnant, said that it didn't take her long to choose her outfit.

"...gets really proud of herself when we're all chatting and she gets a reference". Don't worry Nyssa, I know the feeling. I nearly crap my khakis with pride every time I pick up on a reference. Which, admittedly, is rare. "Dammit GW, you're like a child who wanders into the middle of a movie and wants to know..." *BRAP!* Big Lebowski -- BIG LEBOWSKI!

Hit the jump for a couple more shots, including some of the other colorful characters that were there for the ceremony (including a dude in a Supergirl costume -- ZANY!)

Thanks to Ludd, who once went to a cosplay wedding dressed as a guy who didn't bring a present but still through the buffet line four times. I like your style.

    This is an Alien vs. Predator themed wedding cake created by the Little Cherry Cake Company for a couple who is obviously crazy. There's even an inscription at the bottom of the cake that reads, "You may now decapitate the bride." Ha -- and they say romance is dead. No word ... / Continue →

    This is Don Schwabs sporting his Pikachu Pokemon Card costume at the recent Melbourne Supanova Pop Cultcha Expo. You can tell it's a great costume because you can still wear cargo shorts with it. Thanks to Little Sister, who I promised to protect with my spinning drill arm an... / Continue →

    This is a Pokemon cake and 151 original character figurines made for someone's special day. And by special day I mean marriage, just so we're not confused (in my mind you were thinking high school graduation). People were literally FIGHTING over getting their favorite pokemon... / Continue →
